The Diesel Engine Diesel engines are very similar to the gasoline engine you may find in a car. They both are internal combustion engines‚ have a four stroke cycle‚ and convert chemical energy from fuel into mechanical energy. However‚ the manner in which the combustion stroke is attained sets these two engines apart‚ and although a seemingly meaningless change‚ a large change in efficiency results. (Diesel Engines vs. Gasoline Engines) The diesel engine was invented by Rudolf Diesel in 1892
